    HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Top notch service (not overly pushy, not overly chatty), food was AMAZING, happy hour food and deals were priced well and a great value. Everything came out fresh, hot and delicious. Great location downtown, walkable but also close to multiple parking garages. The vibe inside was great - wasn't overly crowded, was a quiet/ peaceful dining experience. Huge wine list. Overall, 5 star dining experience and would not hesitate to come back.

    This was my first time to Velvet Cellar, my husband’s second. We were greeted with a warm and welcoming smile and seated at the best booth in the restaurant! Kyle, our waiter was attentive and answered all of our questions. We enjoyed 3 appetizers and a lovely wine flight accompanied by a couple of cocktails. Everything was perfect! We will be back!
